Amara and Mathew’s wedding… one word: WOW!

I always have a lot of fun at weddings, but so far, none have even come close to amount of fun I had at Amara and Mat’s this weekend!

It was Awesome! there were times I found it hard to shoot as I was too busy laughing!

Amara and Mat are a beautiful couple: so real, so natural, so bubbly. The bridal party couldn’t let a minute go by without making a funny face, cracking a joke, or singing “it’s a small world after all!!!” (alright.. maybe thats one of those ‘you had to be there’ moments!)

The morning started at the Sebel Suites at Chatswood where Amara and the bridesmaids were preparing for the big day. Then I went to Mat’s apartment where the guys were getting ready; a few quick shots and it was over to Cabarita Park for the ceremony. No shortage of hugs and kisses here!

The weather was looking a bit doubtful at times, but managed to hold up; which was just as well because a suprise boat cruise was organised for the bridal party! During the 2 hour ride, there was plenty of alcohol, jokes and clowning around…. oh and I think we went out to see the Sydney harbour bridge too, but that’s probably a minor detail!

Everyone was then dropped off at the wharf outside Le Montage at Leichhardt for the reception (at The Marquee).

The speeches were emotional and funny, the food excellent, and there was hours of dancing… Even after such a long day, the bridal party was on such a high that they were still strutting their stuff at 12am!

Thank you Amara and Mat for the opportunity to capture this amazing day! All the best for your new life as Mr and Mrs!

I’ve included a few pictures below:

Sorry for the long time between posts. I’ve been extremely busy over the last few months, being the holiday season didn’t really help either!

Over the weekend I had the privilege of covering Alice and Dicky’s wedding.

The ceremony and reception was held on the beautiful “The Pontoon” glass boat.

Despite it being an extremely wet week in Sydney, the rain managed to hold up long enough for an outdoor ceremony… it didn’t hold up for long though as not long after it was raining again!

The 5 hour cruise was enjoyed by all; not only was the food superb, the guests were able to experience breathtaking views…. Sydney Harbour looks so pretty from the water!

Despite the rain, everything ran without hiccup; And everyone was so easy to work with!

I’ve included a few pictures from the day below… Enjoy!

While not as hot as the Sunday before, it was still a scorching day with temperatures up past the 30c mark.

The ceremony was an outdoor one and was held at the Chinese Gardens at Darling Harbour.

Reception was at the Marigold restaurant later on in the evening… it was such a relief to get into somewhere with air conditioning!

Ivy and Ben’s friends really know how to party!
